the ast stores links as a property of an array

[notslang]

Arrays don't really support non-numeric keys, so using ast.links means I loose the list of links whenever I perform an operation on the array like map or concat. If you want to read more, Andrew Dupont has a short essay on why this is harmful.

So, we should change the format of the AST to something like this:

{
  'tokens': [<the array of tokens>]
  'links': {<the object that stores all the links>}
}
